Image Border Not Showing Up - Easy HTML

This driving me nuts...all I want is a border to show around my images in a page I've created for WF-Channel.

My code is as follows :

<img src="/modules/wfchannel/html/mypicture.gif" alt="My ALT value" border="2" height="280" width="250">


but does the black border show? No. I've tried it as border=2, border='2' and border="2" but nothing seems to make a diffence. This applies in both IE and FF.

Any ideas?

There might be a css statement preventing borders from showing in one of XOOPS's millions (there are about 15 when I looked) of css files.
Have a look through the core, module and the relevent theme files, checking each .css file for a statement that prevents borders.

I'm no expert in css, but I reckon the code that would prevent borders from showing around images would be something like this:

img
{
border: none;
}



Tell me how you get on

Also, if you have Mozilla Firefox and the web developer toolbar, you could check to see if the CSS really is the problem by turning off CSS from within the toolbar

tedsmith, try giving the border property by css, like this:
<img src="/modules/wfchannel/html/mypicture.gif" alt="My ALT value" style="border: 2px solid" height="280" width="250" />

Thanks to all, but TotoBG - that has worked a treat! Thanks. I now have a nice border round both my pics. Jolly good

feels good when work is successfully done
it should work fine because it overrides the global styling rules you got somewhere in your css files. And in such case, when a css rule is on, giving just an htmp property (like border='2') to your img tag does not works because it's less powerful than the css properties. :)
